Summary

[edit]
Description Every figure in the Terracotta warriors army differs in facial features and expression, clothing, hairstyle, and gestures, providing abundant and detailed artifacts for the study of the military, cultural, and economic history of that period. Some skeptics were wondering if the king had killed off his army just before his death which resulted the face of each individual to be copied. Closer scrutiny has however shown that there are basically ten kinds of faces, which were used round and round and in an assorted fashion. More on this in a later caption. Notes about the Terracotta warriors appear in previous and in subsequent captions. (Xi'an, Shaanxi, China, May 2017)
